Method of establishing a radio link at the interface between a base station and an access network controller in a mobile telecommunication network including forming a request message for establishing the link by concatenating a message of the control protocol of the radio link and a plurality of messages of the transport protocol on the link; transmitting the request message by the access controller to the base station; and receiving a response message sent back by the station.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method of establishing a radio link at the interface between a base station and an access network controller in a mobile telecommunication network, comprising: forming a request message for establishing the link by concatenating a message of the radio link control protocol and a plurality of connection request messages of the transport control protocol on the link; transmitting the request message by the access controller to the base station; and receiving the response message sent back by the station, wherein the radio link control protocol is the NBAP protocol and the transport control protocol is the ALCAP protocol.
2. The radio link establishment method according to claim 1 , wherein forming the request message includes forming the request message with the number of connection request messages of the transport control protocol.
3. The radio link establishment method according to claim 1 , further comprising forming a response message by concatenating a message of the radio link control protocol and a plurality of messages of the transport control protocol.
4. The radio link establishment method according to claim 3 , wherein the mobile telecommunication network being the UMTS network and the interface being the Iub interface of the network.
5. The radio link establishment method according to claim 4 , wherein forming the request message includes forming the request message with ALCAP protocol messages that are AAL2 connection request messages.
6. The radio link establishment method according to claim 4 , wherein forming the response message includes forming the response message with ALCAP protocol messages that are AAL2 connection confirmation messages.
7. A method of establishing a radio link at the interface between a base station and an access network controller in a mobile telecommunication network, comprising: forming a request message for establishing the link by concatenating a message of the radio link control protocol, a plurality of messages of the transport control protocol, and a number of the plurality of messages of the transport control protocol; transmitting the request message by the access controller to the base station; and receiving the response message sent back by the station, wherein the radio link control protocol is the NBAP protocol and the transport control protocol is the ALCAP protocol.
8. The radio link establishment method according to claim 7 , further comprising forming a response message by concatenating a message of the radio link control protocol and a plurality of messages of the transport control protocol.
9. The radio link establishment method according to claim 8 , wherein the mobile telecommunication network being the UMTS network and the interface being the Iub interface of the network.
10. The radio link establishment method according to claim 9 , wherein forming the request message includes forming the request message with ALCAP protocol messages that are AAL2 connection request messages.
11. The radio link establishment method according to claim 9 , wherein forming the response message includes forming the response message with ALCAP protocol messages that are AAL2 connection confirmation messages.
12. A method of establishing a radio link at the interface between a base station and an access network controller in a mobile telecommunication network, comprising: forming a request message for establishing the link by concatenating a message of the radio link control protocol and a plurality of messages of the transport control protocol; transmitting the request message by the access controller to the base station; forming a response message by concatenating a message of the radio link control protocol and a plurality of messages of the transport control protocol; and receiving the response message sent back by the station.
13. The radio link establishment method according to claim 12 , wherein forming the request message includes forming the request message with the number of messages of the transport control protocol.
14. The radio link establishment method according to claim 12 , wherein the mobile telecommunication network being the UMTS network and the interface being the Iub interface of the network, the radio link control protocol is the NBAP protocol and the transport control protocol is the ALCAP protocol.
15. The radio link establishment method according to claim 14 , wherein forming the request message includes forming the request message with ALCAP protocol messages that are AAL2 connection request messages.
16. The radio link establishment method according to claim 14 , wherein forming the response message includes forming the response message with ALCAP protocol messages that are AAL2 connection confirmation messages.
